65 Only

[dmoore]

Somebody needs to make em! 3/4 of these car owners don't even know they existed! And most of all the parts suppliers have never seen one! Passenger side is completely different due to being more of a 90 than a 45.

#7 plug boot heat shield...

If you had a pattern someone could make there own if you supplied the pattern.
25 years ago I had patterns for 66 to 69 hemi motor mounts. Have passengers side but drivers side has missed placed or tossed by mistake. Tried to find them for a member no dice on drivers side.

Fran I am proceeding with reproducing that shield and and the passenger side when I have one.

May I ask whose headers you have installed? I like this car! A lot!

 

[dmoore]

Okay I see it. Needed to xpand my picture.

Did ya see the smaller one protecting #8 plug wire boot from incineration? It still has traces of Turquoise paint! Ahhh, the little things!

 

[dmoore]

Make a pattern out of paper so if somebody to make one. Send them a copy of your so have for more people. Wonder if folded the opposite way might work on passengers side?

I bead blasted mine and sprayed a couple light coats of high temp flat black...I didn't notice until a few moments ago in this photo posted by GOLDMYN it was in fact painted black from the factory. Traces of black are still present in this photo.

Wow, what a beautiful car! Is the hood and scoop original? If not, where did you get them?

Thanks for posting!

The hood is original. The scoop is a steel replica of the original. I am not sure exactly who made it I bought the car with the body and paint done.

I am looking for THAT shield for my 64 426! I have the drivers side heat shield. It is amazing how much heat these exhaust manifolds retain! Everything under hood gets HOT!

I need some heat shields for my 64 426 as well. I have stock exhaust manifolds and those things are 800F at idle. I think its making the power steering fluid too hot, plus it sucks all that heat in the intake. May need some way to get cool air intake.

Man, lots of nice cars here!!!

Button caps or mags ?View attachment 1041600 View attachment 1041601 View attachment 1041602 Back in it's racing days.

The poverty caps look pretty cool but so do the mags!

I made a cam bearing installation tool years ago but now I can find the bearing plugs for it. Can only find one of the five....and don't remember what I did with them. Lots of stuff like that around here.....lost in space! The cam tool worked great too and as long as the cam ran true, none were ever tight.

It's the garage gremlins that come at night and move or take your stuff !!!

I made a cam brg. tool in college for Mopars, later made adapters for Chevys and the rear case bushing in 350 Turbo transmissions (used to rebuild tons of those).

Are you able to get a template of your driverside exhaust shield? Something out of paper would work.
Let me know if I'm bugging you too much.

 

[Van Stahr]

Put some Heat Shield on my exhaust manifolds and greatly reduced the temp under the hood.

Gitex, can you tell me the measurement from the back edge of the hood to the back edge of your hood scoop?
